ABSTRACT:
A pagewidth printhead assembly is provided. The assembly comprises: (i) an elongate ink distribution manifold that defines a longitudinally and centrally oriented region for receiving one or more printhead integrated circuits, the manifold having a plurality of ink inlets and a plurality of ink outlets that open into the region; (ii) one or more printhead integrated circuits mounted on the region for receiving ink from the ink outlets, each printhead integrated circuit comprising a plurality of inkjet nozzles, drive circuitry for driving actuators in the nozzles and bond pads connected to the drive circuitry; and (iii) a flexible TAB film for supplying power and data to the or each printhead integrated circuit, the TAB film connecting the bond pads with printer control circuitry. The TAB film extends around one longitudinal side of the ink distribution manifold.
